C1ScNNATI GETTING SHORT OF COAL.-The pres
ent stock Of coal In Cincinnati Is half-milliOn
bushels while the usual stock at this time is three
or four mill on bushels The low stage of water
In the Ohio River, which is the chief source Of sup
ply for soft coal, makes 1t impossible to add o
bushe In that way to the stock. The railroads are
not at all prepared to supply such vast quantities
as are consumed in Cincinnati daily, though in
there is not very soon rise in the river their
equipment will have to be enlarged to prevent
actual distress. Manufacturing establishments
are now In trouble over the short allowance and
high prices, and all are intensely interested In

FARMING IN THE SOUTH.
NJ. Quad's Comments on the Agricuitur'
al situation-Men Making Money.

The farmer from England, Scotland or the
north would find himself amazed at what this
soil is ready b do for him. The southern
farmer has improved much in the last five
years. but be is a long way behind his north
ern friend He scratches up the soil where
he ought 10 plow it, He is shiftless in taking
care Of bis crops and his personal property.
While he admits that he could raise from a
third TO one half more than he does, he also
admits what you charge against him. II Is
new deal all around, and it is hard work 70

ton, but any other cereal, or any vegetable
which can be named, will produce here If

richest compost. lie does better than bis
father did, but his "better is very poor work
in comparison with the northern farmer.
There are plenty Of good lands for sale near
Selma, and there are good cash markets for
everything which the farmer wants 10 sell
As an instance Of what may be done,
Wolverine who used 10 live at o xford, and
who is now in business in Montgomery, was
telling rue Of a man who bought a large farm
on the Alabama river and burdened himself
with debt Of $4,000 He agreed 20 pay this
sum and interest in eight years. He had
every dollar paid in less than seven, and the
money came from the sale Of the products n
his farm Hay can be grown here 80 pr
cent cheaper than in the north, because three
and four crops can be cut, but four-iiftln If
the hay Is imported. II is the same with corn
and other tlings When you ask a man Why
he doesn't grow these things he replies:
ooh, 1 know could but I've dun got into
the other way. / reckon I'll change next
year
There are some few farmers here from the
north They like the climate and the people
and they are fast getting rich. They make
piow walk into the earth ia way O. a,tonish
the natives, and they harvest crops which are
the talk Of whole counties.
The wages paid 10 mechanics I'm the south
are slightly lower than in the north and nortl-
eru mechanics cannot live AS chtapiy here.
House rent and groceries and provisions are
